Your age the last time a parent was with you for an exam

Mom until my senior year in high school.

Dad through college and after college.

Had a few with my grandfather there.

I would rather have someone with me than be alone.

I can't really remember the last time because I simply hated having a parent with me or anyone else for that matter. As if I wasn't smart or old enough to understand what goes on in a doctors office. I hated the idea that I needed someone to (metaphorically) hold my hand.

Remember one of those classic old TV ads from the 60s: 'Mother please, I'd rather do it myself!' (for aspirin or something). Anyway, that is what I always felt like snapping to my mother too when she took me to the doctor. She meant well of course, but I found it so humiliating to be thought a child and immature.

One of the last times I remember being accompanied I must have been 16 or something. It was because of a referral from a school exam where I had apparently had too high a heartbeat. So off to the doctor with my mother who looked as if she were taking her eldest to the Last Roundup or to hear a medical death sentence imposed on me. It was so infuriating and silly with her medical doomsday predilections. I think that afterwards I always insisted on going alone or not going to a doctor at all when I was ill with a flu or something banal.

I still don't like anyone I know accompanying me inside. Not my wife either.

For routine medical exams where undressing was required, like at school, that would have been up to about 10 years old. Only when there was a GP appointment because of illness when a parent would then accompany me up to about 15, which I think was the requirement then.

It was weird because my dad was my doctor thru college.

The last time I was 18. I was sick and went to dr. Mom was there I got 2 shots in butt while she watched. I had strep mono and bronchitis. Next day I was admitted to the hospital

The last time my parents were in the room during my exam was when I was 13. I was very fortunate to have a regular doctor who I liked and my parents liked. I was pretty modest (I still am), and didn't really like my parents seeing me undressed. When I was 13 I didn't mind that much having my doctor see me undressed, but I felt sort of weird having my mom just sitting there watching.

The last time for me was probably when I was ten. Even then it was just for giving the history. She left when the physical exam came. She respected my privacy. I did the same for my son.

I was 52. I was wearing spandex and had my genitals examined by a gentleman doctor and his assistant nurse with the long red nails.

Haha Turkent. Good one!

Turkent,

You did look so hot in that spandex! I definitely enjoyed helping you undress down to your full nakedness! My fingernails, the red polish... I also remember how you drooled, oozed and squirt all over them! I know it was a memorable exam for liquidsky who performed the exam as well as for me and of course, you! 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁

You animal Turkent. When you shot six feet in the air and hit the ceiling fan! When you pole vaulted using only yourself. We had to scrape those fingernails on the chalk board to control you

LOL

My dad was always in the room until about 15

I am interested in your experience. I was not accompanied by a parent for a physical after age 12, and after about age 8, the parent waited in a small sitting area outside the exam room. Did you ask you father to be present or did the doctor's office ask a parent to be present or was it the parent's preference? I would think after puberty, having a parent in the room would be awkward and embarrassing.

I guess it was my dad's preference. It was never discussed. Yeah, it was awkward and embarrassing, especially at that age when you are very self conscious about your body. The exam in all honestly wasnt too bad though. I would have my shirt off and be lying down on the table wearing my shorts and underwear. The doctor was on my left, and my dad on my right. The table was pretty high and I was about eye level with my dad. The doctor would examine my upper abd, then he would undo my belt, button, and zipper himself. He would spread the opening of my shorts, and lift up the lining of my briefs to continue his exam onto my lower abdomen. I always knew what was coming, and I would have a full hard-on. This means as soon as he lifted up the waistband of my briefs, my dick greeted him pointing straight at his face. He would palpate my lower abd while brushing against my penis a few times, and then say something like "Okay, we are going to have a look all the way down here." With that, he would grab my penis and examine all aspects of it. Starting with the head, he used his thumbs to spread open the urethral meatus. Then he would examine the head, followed by the shaft. He moved my penis left, right, up, and down to check it from all sides. This was all done sorta inside my underwear and with him pulling the underwear down slightly and lifting my penis up. He would then move down to my testicles by putting his hands further down my underwear. I remember looking up and seeing his palm resting on the top side of my erection while his fingers are playing with my testicles. After he had felt enough, he would retract his hands and redo my shorts. The exam was over and he would give a report to my dad.

I reiterate what I've said on other threads. In forty years of practicing medicine I have never had a male patient have an erection. Most men and boys are way too nervous to have one. Are you sure the doctor "played" with your testes?

The last time my mom went with me to a checkup i was 15 then i started going by myself into the exam rooms with the doctor

My mommy or older sister is ALWAYS in my exams.I have never minded,because I am ALWAYS still diapered 24/7 365,and they are the ones who undiaper me,and then diaper me back up,after my needed exams.I still get what my mommy calls WELL BABY exams!!

Bggrh0321 how come that you are living in a relationship like that, not that i mind i am just currios

I guess it was my dad's preference. It was never discussed. Yeah, it was awkward and embarrassing, especially at that age when you are very self conscious about your body.

Did your dad just suddenly stop going in the exam room with you? Was that his idea or yours? I'm curious because if your dad watched your exam until you were 15, something must have made him stop.

Liquidsky: yes, I was 100% fully erect during my physicals as a teenager. And by played with my testes, obviously I mean that he rolled them around feeling all sides for lumps. I was not implying that he was abusing me.

JimmyJohn: i didnt go for physicals between 15 and 18 or so, and that appointment was with a different dr that i setup myself.

As long as you didn't ejaculate on the wall for the gentleman doctor. Or wear spandex for the nurse with red fingernails I guess it's okay.

Haha, no definitely not.

While I can't remember the last time one of my parents was in the exam room with me, I do recall how old I was the last time my mother observed an embarrassing procedure--namely, when I received my first and only penicillin shot at age 8 (a few months short of nine). At that age, it was still not uncommon for my mother to take my temperature rectally if she wasn't satisfied with an oral reading. But a few years later, when I was 12, and the doctor wanted to do a rectal exam suspecting I might have appendicitis, she stepped outside with him and stayed outside when he returned to do the deed.

I believe I was 13 or 14 the last time a parent accompanied me. It was my dad. My mom had taken us the previous year, I remember distinctly. She usually took us, but that year (either 13 or 14) she was busy and my dad took us. That was the first year I was completely naked in the examination room while my dad and brother watched. The next year my mom took us, and when the nurse called us back, she said to us "you'll be going by yourself from now on. I'll be out here." My brother and I were even put in separate rooms from then on as well. The privacy was nice, mostly so I could talk to the doctor about sex stuff without being embarrassed.

The last I remember was age 11. I had started puberty, and after that my Mom thought it was time for me to go it alone!

Age 12. My mother took me to the doctor to have my foreskin circumcised. (didn't happen)

I was probably 13 or 14 the last time my mom went back with me. I don't remember that experience nearly as much as my first one alone, which took place the summer after 7th or 8th grade. I remember feeling so independent yet at the same time so nervous that I'd do something wrong and get "in trouble".

It's funny... I realize I have no precise idea.

A factor is that, as age increases, one sees physicians less often. Maybe one gets fewer illnesses through schoolmates, maybe one gets immunized, maybe parents freak out less.

Furthermore, there is "exam" and "exam". If I come to the doctor for a severe throat ache, he or she will look at my throat, maybe listen to my lungs. This is not embarrassing, it's not like disrobing into underwear or worse.

I recall, as a teenager, going to the doctor with a cheque from my mother for payment.
